Diane von Furstenberg first entered the fashion world in 1972 with a suitcase full of jersey dresses. Two years later she created the wrap dress, which came to symbolize power and freedom for an entire generation of women. By 1976 she had sold over a million of the dresses and was featured on the cover of Newsweek. In 1997 after a hiatus from fashion, Diane reemerged on the New York fashion scene with the relaunch of the iconic dress that had started it all and reestablished her company as the global luxury lifestyle brand that it is today.
